US-Korea Public Diplomacy

Linking U.S.-Korea Relations


The U.S.-Korea alliance affects the everyday lives of Korean Americans living in the United States. The U.S.-Korea Public Diplomacy program aims to contribute to strengthening U.S.-Korea relations, and not only helps the U.S. Congress increase its understanding of the Korean American community and Korea, but also helps Korean companies and the government understand changes and trends in U.S. politics in real-time. The program includes lectures, interviews, roundtable discussions, and site visits.
